All your grand plans and gritted teeth
All your pride
They'll cut you down to count the rings
Measure your worst years
Count off all the days
Write on the walls
Who wants to live this way
Bent by the breeze until you stay, or break
Yeah, we've had better years
But bad years look better when they're gone
Count down the days until you get away
Check your last list
Yeah, we've had better years
But bad years look better when they're gone
Bent by the breeze until you stay, or you break
All your grand plans and gritted teeth
All your bent and burnt pride
They'll cut you down to count the rings
Measure out your worst years
We're bent into shape
We stay or we break
